Wichita black metal project from the Kansas underground.
Williamson black metal project from the West Virginia underground.
Bethlehem deathcore project from the Pennsylvania underground.
Kansas City, Missouri black metal project active since 2017. Their releases Remembrance and Homesick inject unusual emotional vulnerability into black metal, the spring-rain name suggesting a softer atmospheric approach that contrasts with the genre's typical harshness.
Grants Pass, Oregon death metal project whose 2019 self-titled EP delivers extremity from southern Oregon's Rogue Valley. Named after wingless insects, their music stays grounded in earthbound heaviness.
Florida progressive melodic death metal project whose 2021 instrumental EP strips the vocals away to spotlight technical musicianship. Another entry in the Sunshine State's legacy of technically ambitious extreme metal.
Lockport death metal project from the Illinois underground.
Tacoma, Washington thrash metal project. Aquatic apocalypse from Puget Sound.
Madison stoner metal project from the Wisconsin underground.
